Love Under Disguise—Chappie 6

I woke up early the next morning, looking over next to where Gippal was sleeping. Thinking that it was best not to wake him up, I decided to take a little walk around Luca. Slipping my feet inside my blue boots, I left a quick note for Gippal, just so he wouldn't worry. I looked over at the sound asleep Gippal, and gave him a quick kiss on each of his cheeks. As I kissed the last cheek, his arms reached out, and wrapped themselves around me, pulling me on top of him, making my lips seal on his.
"Hey! No fair!" I said as he started tickling my sides. "Stop! Please!"
"First, tell me where you were going!" Smirking Gippal said, still working his hands into my sides.
"I will never tell!" I joked.
"Okay, then!" He started tickling me harder, making me laugh harder. "Tell me!"
"Never!"
"Tell me!"
"No way!" Without warning, he rolled on top of me, tickling me even harder.
"Okay! Okay, I'll tell!" He stopped tickling me. "I was going to leave a note. I was going to take a little stroll around Luca, and bring back some breakfast for the two of us." Gippal smirked.
"Oh, how sweet, but I have a better idea. How about we go out to breakfast, instead of eating in this cramped little inn. Hmmm?" He looked down at me, and I nodded.
"Yeah, I'd really like that." I smiled my sweet smile, and kissed him. After a few minutes, Gippal helped me up, and got his boots on.
"Well, what are we waiting for?" He said, buckling the last buckle on his boots. He got up, and held the door open for me.
"My lady." He said politely.
"Oh, thank you, servant!" I giggled, and pulled the couple of notes out from my purse. "But first, I have to leave these on their doors." I went over to the rest of the rooms where, and stuck the notes on the three doors.
"Well, all done! Now, where to, Sir Butler?" I giggled.
"I was thinking about this little place at the edge of town called, 'Lucan Appetite.'" He held out his elbow, and I gingerly laced my arm through it.
"Okay, sounds great! Lead us there!" With that, we walked to the restaurant, and were seated by a waiter.
"So, what will you be having, miss?" The waiter asked, politely.
"Um, I'll be having the French Toast meal, with a small side of sausage links." He nodded, and turned to Gippal. The guy's eyes went wide, for a weird reason.
"Um, is something wrong?" Gippal asked.
"Uh, n-nothing, s-sir." He laughed nervously. "Uhm, may I take your o-order, s-sir?"
"Um...I'll just have what the lady's havin'."
"Coming r-right u-up, s-sir!" He quickly walked out of the room, and left us to wonder.
"Okay...is it just me, or is that guy t-terrified of you?" I mimicked his words, and we laughed. Just then, the news came onto the sphere. I paid attention, but Gippal got our food and started to eat. I gasped as Barali and Gippal's faces appeared on the screen, saying that a reward would be paid if they were found alive.
"What is it, Rikku? What's wrong?" When I didn't reply, he followed my gaze to the sphere, and gasped as well. I finally averted my gaze, and turned to eat my meal. We ate in silence for the rest of the time, and then we saw some Bevelle monks and solders enter. Our waiter pointed to our table, and I knew we were in deep Kim chi.
"Um, Gippal?"
"Yeah, Rikku?" His eye locked with my worried ones.
"We've got some company!" He looked over to the solders, and turned back to me.
"Let's get out of here!" He whispered as he left the gil on the table, while grabbing my hand, and running to the exit.
"There they go! Follow them!" I ran a little beside Gippal, trying to match his long pace. I felt shaken up inside, and pyraflies were flying wildly inside of me.
"I think we lost them, but we have to get out of here as soon as possible!" He sped up even more, causing me to trip and fall. He immediately noticed, and came to my rescue, again.
"Rikku!" He ran to my side, and hurriedly pulled me up. He looked at my elbow, where a huge gash bled. "Are you okay? Does it hurt?" He took my arm, and looked at me with one heck of a worried eye.
"Yeah, it stings, but nothing I can't handle." I said through clenched teeth. We turned our heads to see that the solders and monks surrounded us. Gippal pulled me closer to him, and waited for the worst. A monk stepped forward from the crowd.
"We have orders from the head of New Yevon to arrest Gippal, the Al Bhed Leader of the Machine Faction, for the crimes he has committed against the order of the organization New Yevon. If you would step aside, Miss, then there will be no harm done." He waited for me to step away, but I stood still.
"Well?" He impatiently asked. I had had enough with Yevon! First making people believe in a false hope for centuries, hiding the secrets of Spira's past, and not to mention the assassination of Lenne and Shuyin, along with the great city, Zanarkand! That was it!
I looked at Gippal, and then back to them. "No."
"What was that?"
"I said no, as in no I am not going to step away from him, and no, I do not ever ever ever trust you! So bring on whatever you have coming, 'cause I'm not as weak as you think I am!" With that, I grabbed my old thief dress sphere, and threw it over my head to change into it, just to prove my point.
"Uh, Lady Rikku! Um...sorry for the inconvenience! But, we were ordered to take him away!" Well, at least now he recognized me!
"Well, just tell your leader that if he wants to seize my Gippal, then he or she would have to get through the YRP gang first!" I took out my daggers and got into my battle position. They all backed off, instead of trying to kill me.
"U-um, yes, Miss Rikku!" He bowed, and left with his solders. I smirked and turned back to Gippal. He looked at me with amazement hidden in his one eye. I quickly pulled out my default dress sphere, realizing that he was looking at my...you-know-what's. My clothes changed into the regular ones, and Gippal finally snapped out of his trance.
"Hey! What'd you do that for?" He asked coming closer to me, and hugging me tightly.
"Just guess, Gippal." I laid my head on his chest to hear the steady beating inside.
"Oh, yeah. So, you've noticed..." (Hahaha...took that out of Kingdom Hearts! Kairi's lines to Riku...anyways...back to the story!) I punched his arm playfully.
"Hey! Ow! What was that for?" He rubbed his arm where I hit him. I laughed.
"It wasn't THAT hard!" I giggled again.
"I'm going to get you for that!" He reached for me, but I dodged him.
"If you can catch me, first!" I laughed as we ran, Gippal chasing me, and me running away from him. We ran and ran, until Gippal tuckered out, first of course!
"Okay, okay! Truce!" He held out his hand for me to shake. I cautiously took it, but got dragged into a passionate kiss.
"Hey! No fair! You gave up!"
"No, I just did it my way!" He said tickling me.
"Stop! Ow!" He stopped, and looked over at my forgotten un-treated elbow.
"Oh! I'm sorry! It's time to go back anyway, so Yuna could help you."
"No need, Gippal." I took out my White Mage dress sphere, and threw it over my head.
"Curaga!" I whispered to my rod. Energy flew out of me into my rod, and healed the skin right up. I looked at Gippal, whom was looking at me with pure interest. I smiled at him, and took a bow, which made him chuckle. I then twirled around and changed into my regular clothes, again.
"Well, time to go. And we'd better warn Baralai!"
"Well then..."
"Let's go!" We said at the same time, while running down the path to the inn.

But, little did they know that someone was closely watching them...
